This is so fucking ridiculous. They say shit like that, but they were perfectly fine with CoD having an entire mode exclusive to PS4 a few years back.

I agree that it’s getting ridiculous to count Twitch metrics as a form of popularity. Not everyone who plays it is going to stream it. Nevermind it being a game that’s more or less “one and done”.

Horizon Forbidden West has fallen from its peak of 224,509 Twitch viewers to a paltry average of 227 views over the last week, according to Twitch Tracker. Elden Ring, meanwhile, has experienced a significant drop since its big launch numbers, but it still managed to bring in an average of 17,019 viewers in the last…

I agree with the overall sentiment, though I never saw Ryuji and Joker as anything other than best friends. They have that dynamic without the romantic subtext. Yu and Yousuke on the other hand.....

A trans person who has “Sir” in her name and, given the wizarding world’s propensity of addressing everyone by their last name, would constantly be referred to as a traditionally male name. Yeah, good job there.

And not distancing itself enough from JK given she’s still getting royalties for this. I don’t see what…

No it isn’t. We’re telling people how this helps fuel a bigot. How she uses the support and money she gets to justify her anti-trans views. And these people who claim to be allies and claim to be for trans rights balk at the first thing that inconveniences them. So many excuses of “Oh this was my childhood. Oh the…

Same. I've seen stuff like this for the last few weeks. It's made me rather wary of "allies"

So wait. She was streaming the game and donating to The Trevor Project?

Define “bully”. Calling an “ally” out for playing this game and still trying to say they’re for trans issues isn’t bullying.

And honestly, most trans people, myself included, have generally just said our piece and blocked them.

Its TOTALLY not the first Nintendo game at that price point. The SNES has quite a few $70 games. Now it's definitely the first Switch game to hit that point tho. 

FFXIV says hi. As does FFXI.

So basically, they did what just about EVERY game and movie does in existence? Cool. Does anyone even pay attention to those anymore?

There was a thing called a chip shortage combined with a global pandemic that happened.

“While we’re on the subject of Forspoken, a demo was recently released, and fan feedback has resulted in some changes being made to the game”

Unless this is changes things to be in line with Remake, story wise, it’s a straight up prequel to FFVII, which you can buy on Xbox for $16

What’s annoying is that they lump VGC and Smogon together as “competitive Pokemon”. And while they are both competitive, they’re wildly different

It’s pretty hypocritical that they complain about the potential for microsoft to make CoD exclusive, yet they have done stuff like pay for exclusivity for years. I recall once when there was a whole mode in CoD that was PS exclusive for a year.

Would we count SF to SF2?

I can’t say it’s growing on me because I didn’t find it grating in the first place. Low energy? Sure. But I had a feeling it would pick up. Especially when we hear more and more dialogue.

Ironically enough, way back in the days of the Super Mario Bros Super Show, Mario was from Brooklyn.
